We Serve It, Even When It's Hard To Swallow
The woman is also the mother of a gay son, and during a question/answer session, she admitted feeling a “sense of guilt” for supporting Santorum, who her son claims “hates gays.” That’s when Karen Santorum stepped in and came to her husband’s defense, chiding “gay activists” for vilifying her husband.
This young man’s love for his mothers touched a chord in people of all ages and backgrounds. So many people, gay and straight, were moved by Zach and his family, that they sent in photos of their own families, along with one simple wish…
Mitt Romney is a permanent member of what I like to call Darwin’s Workshop. He is always evolving, and that makes it difficult to pinpoint his positions on anything. He changes positions like people change their underwear (daily). However, one thing is certain. As he makes his presidential run in 2012, Mitt Romney is not a progressive in any sense of the word.
The CWA opposes gay rights, comprehensive sex education, drug and alcohol education, and feminism. It touts “pro-life” and “pro-family” values. A few days ago, Concerned Women for America posted a video (below0 with Crouse rattling off a litany of statistics about the gay community’s threat to traditional marriage. Janice’s God only knows where she got the statistics she presented in the video. I’ve tried to find them prior to writing this rebuttal without much luck.
When people ask me why these two candidates are so important, my answer is very simple: Both women are true progressives, and that’s what America needs. It’s pretty clear that the present ‘system’ of electing our leaders isn’t going to change any time soon. We’ve made halfhearted attempts at reforming the election process and have basically gotten nowhere.
Secretary of State Hillary Clinton delivered a speech this week in Geneva, Switzerland, where she spoke on the recognition of human rights, particularly human rights for LGBT citizens around the world. One particular portion of Ms. Clinton’s speech has resonated with the public and is being shared at a feverish pace in the past few days…
The old Biblical idiom “out of the mouths of babes” couldn’t be more apt than for this brave young man. Eight-year-old Elijah confronted crass, homophobic Michele Bachmann at a book signing and gave her a piece of his mind on her hateful rhetoric against people like his mom, a gay parent.
I love it when political candidates are forced to handle real questions from an informed citizen. That’s just what 16-year-old Jane Schmidt did to Michele Bachmann during a campaign stop this past week when she asked the candidate what she would do to support “LGBT rights.”
Right-wing religious extremist Bryan Fischer celebrates the pending retirement of Rep. Barney Frank (D-MA) by attacking the openly gay congressman for influencing men to be homosexual and get AIDS, eventually causing their deaths.
One of the highest trending videos over the weekend is this emotional and blunt public service announcement from Australia dealing with discrimination and marriage equality.
This is one of those rare video finds that takes the time to explain in the simplest terms how the American economy got so screwed up, how the wealthiest 1% assumed so much control, why there is a need for the Occupy movement to succeed, and the real difference between Democrats and Republicans.
It turns out when people figure out the Republican agenda for the country, they want no part of it, and the country ceases to be the mythical “center-right” nation that right-wing apologists like to speak of, and tilts full on to the left. John Kasich got spanked in Ohio for his anti-union overreach, Maine reinstated same-day voter registration…
First of all, the idea that an omnipotent being would give a Buddha’s butt about an election is ridiculous, and is further evidence of how dangerous these supposed “Christians” really can be when influencing their misguided flock. Secondly, we think Jesus would weigh all the issues, consider all the candidates and their beliefs, then come down squarely in support of …
Republicans and neo-conservatives have been clamoring about the threat same-sex marriage poses to the institute of traditional marriage. Gay and lesbian couples who have gained the right to marry in some states have already proven more of a commitment to their life-partners than Kardashian showed to her hubby; if Bieber truly did cheat on his long-time girlfriend, well, not to be graphic here, but it wasn’t his values doing the salutin’.
Columnist and activist Dan Savage, who founded the “It Gets Better” movement following the rash of gay suicides last year, has openly challenged Republican presidential candidate Herman Cain to prove the candidate’s recent claim that being gay “is a choice” by choosing to be gay!
